At the end of training I did a chin-up with 20 kg. I want to know whether I am able or not. Yesterday was not a good day, but it's interesting to do such a test, that is close to 30% of my bodyweight (i.e. 72 kg)

Thank you! Trying out 3 sets of 40 for a couple days. We'll see how it goes!If you can't do 2 min in a row you can safely do two sets of 1 min or 4 of 30 sec, they are just examples, you still train even if you can't follow exactly what the program requires.
Not even I managed to do 2 min in a row
And: welcome

airman.pankdawg be sure to engage your shoulders and your scapula to prevent shoulder injury. You might hang longer without, but it is definitely worth it, and it helps to build strength for the pull up.Comment

airman.pankdawg, in this moment I am not work on dead hang, but my two cents on such a question.Originally posted by airman.pankdawg View Post
I sugguest you not to work until the failure, since a full rest (around 5 minutes) the volume of your training is low. It's better work with a buffer and consider to stop when the grip becomes more difficult.
By the way, grip is very important. Thus, improve the grip is a way to improve dead hand (and also pull ups). There are several way to improve grip, e.g. gripper, farmer walk, use a towel for dead hang or pull ups.
An exercise that helps to increase dead hang is flexed arm hang (since the group muscles are "the same", but they work in a different way)
Moreover dead hand is a exercise that fit very well the training protocol Greese To Grove.

2016/2019 – 3 to go.
Doing numbers after the pull ups done today, I realized that something was wrong, so I looked back my posts. I made a mistake by subtracting repetitions here, so the number "to finish" is incorrect from then.
